Well worth a visit

Staff shortage, but they worked hard to overcome it. Room was clean, breakfast was top notch, and the place has a great atmosphere. Parts of the hotel date back to 1681 when it was a coaching hotel, and the dining room has featured in many films. Well worth a visit!

Sweet Cottage at the heart of historic Whitby

April Cottage is very well placed for visiting Whitby as you are in the more historic harbourside (underneath the famous Abbey). On arrival there are plenty of steps to ascend to reach the cottage which is tucked away behind the main street of shops. The cottage provides all that you all need for a self-catering holiday or eat out at the many places nearby. I would say that it suits three/four people max as the third bedroom is only really suitable for children or one adult (and has no extra space for storage - so you need to share those with the second bedroom). I would say that the bedding needs updating, particularly the very lumpy hollow fill duvet on the main bed, and the pillows. All three beds were comfortable. There should also be a handrail on the initial steps down from each level on the spiral staircase as these could be easily a safety issue. The central heating works well and there is plenty of hot water, a useful washer/drier and a mini-diswasher. The open fire place is an added joy. All in all I won't hesitate to return (especially if they upgraded their bedding!).

Historic location

We loved our stay at the White Horse and Griffin; it was charming and full of history. The room was well appointed but did suffer from being at the top of the house, with associated low ceilings. The bath/shower was also difficult to access and grab handles would be helpful. The bed, towels and hospitality tray were all good quality. The staff were brilliant; friendly and helpful and always had time to stop and chat. The location is at the heart of Whitby's old town but be aware that parking is remote from the hotel. I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again - loved it!

Lovely little hotel, fantastic character. Noisy.

A very characterful old building, which means you have to allow for when appraising the accomodation. That said, our room was great, with plenty of room for us and the kids. Being in the attic I banged my head a couple of times, and the bathroom was at the limits of usability for me (especially the shower). Being a working restaurant/pub, and in such a busy area, it became VERY noisy from 7am onwards. This coupled with the rain and seagulls meant sleep wasn't great. The breakfast was very good, and I can thoroughly recommend the kippers.

An enjoyable stay

Lovely Pub in the centre of Town, close to everything. Staff friendly, pleasant and professional. Room quite spacious. Breakfast was made with quality ingredients. Parking is nearby, about 200 metres or so. Overall an enjoyable stay.

Good location

Beautiful building full of character in the heart of Whitby. The room we had needs a little TLC however we would gladly book it again. Laid back friendly customer service, which we welcomed. Note. The stairs to the rooms could prove difficult for some as they are very steep in areas. Overall, a beautiful building, full of history in a great location, we would recommend staying.
